Art school heads to the bar at this special event. “Drink, Draw, Destroy” features 45-minute drawing lessons in our School and Studio led by teaching artist Jeriah Hildwine. Drink specials are on tap at our cash bar, sponsored by Chant Restaurant. And, while you peruse the two floors of galleries, a live DJ keeps the tunes playing all night.

Best of all, artist Conrad Freiburg is bringing a machine he calls the “SCUE” (Self-Contained Unit of Entropy) where visitors create their own small works of art, document them, then… destroy them. How cool is that?
